Adelaide recruiting manager Hamish Ogilvie says bidding on Jamarra Ugle-Hagan is a "serious consideration" come draft day, per SEN.
After finishing 18th in 2020, the Adelaide Crows have the first selection in Wednesday's draft and draft hopeful Ugle-Hagan is considered to be one of the best talents in crop.
Adelaide currently have one of the best pick in the draft with picks 9, 22, 23 and 40, with Ogilvie saying that they need the on field variety come this draft.
The Crows will now need to consider whether or not they are wanting to make a bid on the Next Generation Academy star or make a strategic move for their 2021 season.
The Bulldogs will have the draft points from picks 29, 33, 41, 42, 52, 54 to get Ugle-Hagan, but whether or not Adelaide are willing to pull that card is the question.
Ogilvie told SENโsย Dwayneโs World on Monday that they would reveal their plans for the 2020 draft come Tuesday.
โThereโs a number of reasons why you should and why you shouldnโt, so weโll weigh that up,โ Ogilvie toldย Dwayneโs World.
โDoes the player desperately want to be No. 1 that you do pick? The other thing is maybe the Bulldogs are going to pick the same player as we are later in the draft, so if they donโt have those points, maybe they canโt.
โWeโve got to add some great young guys with high character, work ethic and talent and weโve got to add as many of them as we can to get back up the ladder as quick as we can."
